Perhaps that's why you dislike Liverpool, and the Liverpudlian accent.
An unobtainable, glittering prize.

You're not getting away with that!
My day was long before yours and things change. We didn't have to go far to get a good education. My undergraduate course and social life at Preston were second to none and the obtainable glittering prize was in 1968 when I took the Guild Mayor's Prize at Preston and went to Sussex University afterwards for my doctorate.
